Ɛsta 5:1-14
5 Lushi la 3,+ Ɛsta akalɔtɛ ekutu ande wa lowandji ko akɔtɔ lo sɛkɛ dia l’etei dia luudu la nkumekanga,* mbɛlanɛ la luudu la nkumekanga etena kakadjasɛ nkumekanga lo kiti kande ka lowandji lo luudu la lowandji mbɛlanɛ la soko.
2 Kam’akɛnyi nkumekanga Ɛsta ka wadi aki nkumekanga emadi lo sɛkɛ, Ɛsta akahomɔ lokolo l’ɔlɔ la ntondo kande, ko nkumekanga akootshume danga dia paonyi+ diaki lo lonya lande. Ko Ɛsta akasukana ndo akakimɛ shɔdi ya danga diakɔ.
3 Nkumekanga akawombola ate: “Ɛsta wadi aki nkumekanga le, ambotomba? Alangayɛ? Oyadi kaanga k’ahende ɔtɔi ka diolelo diami kayoyɔlɔmba, dimi layokoshatɔ!”
4 Ɛsta akakadimola ate: “Naka nkumekanga alanga, nkumekanga aye nde la Hamana+ ɛlɔ lo dambo diamomɔɔlɔngɔsɔlɛ.”
5 Ko nkumekanga akatɛ anto ande ate: “Nyote Hamana aye esadi oko walɔmba Ɛsta.” Ɔnkɔnɛ, nkumekanga nde la Hamana wakatshu lo dambo diakalɔngɔsɔla Ɛsta.
6 Lam’akawanɔka wanu lo dambo, nkumekanga akatɛ Ɛsta ate: “Ta kɛnɛ kayangayɛ, ko wayokoshatɔ! Alangayɛ? Oyadi k’ahende ɔtɔi ka diolelo diami kayoyɔlɔmba, dimi layokoshatɔ!”+
7 Ɛsta akakadimola ate: “Kɛnɛ kayangami ndo kalɔmbami tɔ kɛnɛ:
8 Naka lambohomɔ lokolo l’ɔlɔ le nkumekanga ndo naka nkumekanga nangaka mbishami kɛnɛ kayangami ndo salɛmi kɛnɛ kalɔmbami, nkumekanga nde la Hamana kawoye lo dambo diayomaalɔngɔsɔlɛ loyi; ndo loyi dimi layosala oko wata nkumekanga.”
9 Lushi lɔsɔ, Hamana akatshu l’ɔngɛnɔngɛnɔ ndo la ɔlɔ l’otema. Koko lam’akɛnyi Hamana Mɔrɔdɛkai la soko dia nkumekanga ndo lam’akandɛnyi dia nde hemadi ndo hasaki lokomba la ntondo kande, Hamana akoke Mɔrɔdɛkai+ nkɛlɛ k’efula.
10 Koko Hamana akayakimɛ, ko akatshu lakande. Oma laasɔ, nde akatome dui dia telɛ angɛnyi ande ndo Zerɛshɛ+ ka wadɛnde.
11 Hamana akasɛmɛ ɔngɔnyi wa lotombo lande, efula k’anande,+ woho wakawosha nkumekanga nɛmɔ ndo woho wakandawodiya la diko dia ewandji la ekambi wa nkumekanga.+
12 Hamana akakotsha ate: “Kɛnɛ koleki ele, Ɛsta wadi aki nkumekanga hele onto okina paka dimi oto dia ntshindɛ nkumekanga lo dambo diakandalɔngɔsɔdi.+ Nde akambele nto loyi dia monga kaamɛ la nkumekanga.+
13 Koko lo akambo asɔ tshɛ, ndooko kɛnɛ kakoka ngɛnyangɛnyami edja tshɛ kaakamɛɛnyi Mɔrɔdɛkai ose Juda odjashi la soko dia nkumekanga.”
14 Ko Zerɛshɛ ka wadɛnde la angɛnyi ande tshɛ wakawotɛ vate: “Wasale otamba wele la otale wa kubita 50.* Ndo la pindju, kote nkumekanga dia Mɔrɔdɛkai pombaka panema lɔkɔ.+ Oma laasɔ, koyotshu wɛ la nkumekanga lo dambo dia nyu tɔngɛnangɛna.” Kanyi shɔ yaki dimɛna le Hamana, ko nde akasale otamba akɔ.
